My first blog post

Well this is something I thought about doing for a while now....Is my life interesting enough? Do I have interesting things to post? Well I have taken the plunge and will have to see how we go!!

Thought id start with things which are important to me....
Of course my family- I live with my partner and 2 sons. youngest 11 month old and oldest 5 years old.
My artwork....Well alot of posts will be to do with this and my love of all things art!!
My animals.... Ill post some pictures soon as I have quite menagerie!!
The countryside....I live in Leeds, so it is very much in the city but my love for the countryside is way more powerful than city living! I will one day own a small holding and live my dream of country living!!

Ill start with a few pics of my animals:

Frank- our axolotl

We have other animals too, but this is the majority of them. Didnt want to bore everyone with more photos!!

So here's to the world of blogging and here I begin.

Be sure to help me along the way and bring along any people who may like to follow my ramblings- sorry interesting posts!

About Me

My name is Helen Broadhead, I design and make jewellery- bracelets, pendants, rings and many more. I also create polymer clay models and jewellery.
I studied textile and surface pattern design at university, and art at college.
After many years of doing many creative things, I turned my hand to jewellery design with polmer clay, beads and wire wrapping.
After feedback recieved from previous clients I have decided to set up my etsy shop to sell my wares. All are unique and handcrafted by my own hands. I love what I do and hope others love them too!!
I am happy to do commisions of both polymer clay and jewellery, in any design and colour. If you are looking for a personalised piece or something unique that you have ideas for please contact me.
